You're looking out into space from your little spaceship. Turn the ship in any direction using your joystick controller.

 

Stars move in 5 planes. 4 planes of stacked hardware sprites and 1 plane of software sprites. The planes has 6, 7, 9, 10 and 16 stars.

 

 

Oh yeah! That is so cool. I see a l :-ot of potential there for a new type of space based video game.

Great effect! How about adding flying into the screen? (Brings back horrible memories of Windows ... :P )

 

Thanks. :)

 

Yep, I'll do one. - Back in the early eighties, I did do a flying through an asteroid belt with that 3D effect with vanishing point / one-point perspective. It was done with Mini Memory. Asteroids started out in the center, and grew in size and speed. Very nice effect. Fixed timing between new sprites fired from the center alternating between up and down motion with relatively steep / vertical angles (to avoid more than 4 sprites per horizontal line).

 

;)
